This workshop, for participants of the international training course Mental Health Promotion for Youth Work, will teach you how you will be able to give a reflex zone massage. The reflex zone massage can also be done on the feet. This time we are going to focus on the hands.

Hand massage zones


What
In couples you will experience 15 minutes how to give a hand massage and 15 minutes how to receive a hand massage.

What you need to bring:
  • small towel
  • hand creme or oil

After the hand massage we will debrief the experience and how we can use this method in our youth work.

How
By applying pressure on certain points of the hand you will affect the corresponding body parts and organs. Reflex zone massage also named reflexology stimulates the self-healing power of the body. By harmonizing those powers whom sit within everybody´s energy balance in the body and mind.

According to the theory but also noticeable within the practice, the reflexology stimulates body mind and soul. On the psychological it can have significant positive effects.

During the stimulation of the pressure points the relaxation will be improved and therefor the entire health and quality of live will be improved.

During the massage there are several technics you can apply:
  • Appling pressure on a specific point
  • To smooth or knead of the larger zone of the hands

All of the technics focus on stimulating points or zones to create a positive effect on other parts of the body. You could say the zones (reflex area) on the hands (and feet) mirror the parts of our body that are in need of attention.

During the massage of the hand, the tension will release, the hands will be come flexible and feel softer. This in its turn will also trigger the relaxation of body and mind resulting in overall body relaxation. This massage can be applied on persons of all ages.

More information you can find in the recourse attached.
